![]() ![]() During a penumbral eclipse, the moon stays on this outer ring, appearing as if it is dimming, but not completely darkening like a total lunar eclipse. ![]() Not all meteors you see will be Eta Aquariids, but they’re easy to tell because the Eta Aquariids are very fast.”ĭuring an eclipse, the shadow Earth casts is broken up into two sections: the umbra, which is the dark center, and the penumbra, the fainter outer shadow. “Look for these fast meteors shooting upward from the eastern horizon. Get a lawn chair and put the moon at your back,” said Robert Lunsford, fireball report coordinator for the American Meteor Society. “I would suggest going out around 3 o’clock in the morning. With the moon completely full, the Aquariids will have to compete with some bright light interference to be seen in the night sky. The collision of celestial events might be exciting for space enthusiasts, but together they could hinder your view. New first-of-its-kind image reveals a jet of material launching from a black hole This suggests that in the new image we see more of the material that is falling towards the black hole than what we could see with the EHT. The new observations also revealed that the black hole's ring, shown here in the inset, is 50% larger than the ring observed at shorter radio wavelengths by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). ![]() This image gives scientists the context needed to understand how the powerful jet is formed. The observations were obtained with telescopes from the Global Millimetre VLBI Array (GMVA), the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), of which ESO is a partner, and the Greenland Telescope. This image shows the jet and shadow of the black hole at the centre of the M87 galaxy together for the first time. ![]()
